This tenacious, stoic race knows all too well the rigors of living in the harsh and often deadly wastes of Northrend. Over time, the taunka - whom many believe to be ancestral cousins of the tauren - have adapted, but only by forcing the land and the elements to yield to their will. The taunka's relationship with nature, unlike that of their tauren brethren, has been one of constant struggle and grim perseverance.
Although the taunka may seem dour or even cold to outsiders, those who come to know them will soon recognize an embattled race of survivors characterized by colossal hearts and unshakable resolve.
这个坚韧不拔、意志顽强的种族对诺森德大陆上条件严酷到经常致命的生活了如指掌。随着时间的推移,这些据信是牛头人的远方亲戚的唐卡牛人接受了元素和大地的力量——但和他们的远亲不一样,他们强迫元素和大地的力量为他们服务。唐卡牛人和自然的关系也与牛头人表亲们不一样,这种关系一直充斥着冲突和隐忍。
虽然唐卡牛人对异乡人的态度不那么和善——甚至有些冷淡——但是前来了解他们的人很快就会发现这是一支胸怀宽广、意志坚定的饱经征战的种族。
